“On Hallow'een night long ago a man was comming home from his work...”
(continued from previous page)Tell me where I will get it, when I come back". So the men went home and left his can in the fort and he brought a big pail and the spade back with him for the gold. And when he came back there was no can or no fairies. He dug up the earth and he could get no gold. And he went home very sad.
